Michigan vs. USC – Rose Bowl Recap

Monday, January 1st, 2007

Outplayed and outcoached. I want to leave it at that, but it would probably be better for me if I was able to let it out. So I will try. The Rose Bowl (presented by Citi, of course) left me with a lot of questions.

Michigan vs. USC in the Rose Bowl

Sunday, December 3rd, 2006

Let the controversy begin. Michigan gets snubbed by the BCS, they’ll play in the Rose Bowl against the USC Trojans. Florida will play Ohio State in the BCS National Championship Game. This is a rematch of the 2004 Rose Bowl in which USC was victorious. This game is a disappointment for each team. Both teams [...]

Michigan deserves to play in the BCS National Championship Game more than Florida

Saturday, December 2nd, 2006

Florida is a good team, no doubt, and Urban Meyer has done a great job stepping into that position and turning Florida back into a dominant program. Congratulations, enjoy the Sugar Bowl.

Michigan vs. Vanderbilt at the Big House

Monday, September 4th, 2006

Adding to the many sporting events we’ve been to this year, we made the trek to the Big House on Saturday to see the Michigan Wolverines take on the Commodores of Vanderbilt
